Paul George: My goal now is set to be MVP
George will be the leader of the Pacers
Paul George wants to fight for the MVP award next season.
The Pacers start returned for the final weeks of season after the leg injury suffered last summer with USA National Team.
Per Indy Star, "After being draft into the NBA, I was playing from the bench and then tried to be a starter, then an All-Star. My goal now is set to be MVP. This year, that hasn't changed," George told fans at a Beijing Nike store. (Thanks, Google translation.)
George also spoke about the team's new makeup, which includes the loss of Roy Hibbert and David West. With the veteran leadership of West now in San Antonio, George said he plans on stepping into a leadership role in 2015.
"As a team leader, you must learn to give more effort than others, the first to arrive every day to the arena, the last one to leave every day," he said.
